So, the real question is, why would a mechanic that should know better make that type
of comment.

How does a mechanic make this kind of statement that you should sell it, if it is no good for you, it is no good for the next owner? Right?
If you disclose it and are completely honest about what you are selling then at least you are coming from a decent place of integrity. Unfortunately it seems to me like that particular quality is not as common in people as many of us would like to see. This society seems to have declined in that honesty, integrity, golden rule type of area.

Don't know the mechanic but know of mechanics (and other people) like that. And perhaps the mechanic actually did not intend for the rust to be hidden during the sale, maybe the mechanic just knows it will get worse and the vehicle needs to go bye bye.

I really love my Tundra... and would do all I could to fix her and keep her. I don't know if I would sell a rusted anything? I suppose like what was stated... if I was struggling and had to feed my daughter, then I would sell, but I would not be dishonest about it. Everything thing would be disclosed!
